Catalogue note
The Face Vol. 2 No. 77, February 1995, with Michael Stipe photographed by Jean-Claude Dhien. The issue captures several careers and cultural currents at unusually transitional moments: Kate Winslet is profiled around her film debut in Peter Jackson's Heavenly Creatures; Tricky is presented after leaving Massive Attack and immediately before Maxinquaye entered the UK chart at No. 3; Elastica are covered just before their debut album entered the UK chart at No. 1; and Michael Stipe fronts the issue during R.E.M.'s Monster era. Elsewhere the magazine treats Star Trek as a technology-and-culture phenomenon, runs a feature on the BBC2 ecstasy drama Loved Up and surveys Bomb the Bass, Leftfield and Tim Westwood in its Hype section.
